2. Beschreibung der verwandten Technik2. Description of the related technology
Die Verwendung von CDMA-Modulationstechniken (CDMA = Code Division Multiple Access = Codemultiplex-Vielfachzugriff) ist eine von mehreren Techniken zum Erleichtern von Kommunikation, bei der eine große Anzahl von Systembenutzern vorhanden ist. Obwohl andere Techniken, wie beispielsweise TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access = Zeitmultiplex-Vielfachzugriff), FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access = Frequenzmultiplex-Vielfachzugriff) und AM-Modulationsverfahren, wie beispielsweise ACSSB (Amplitude Companded Single Sideband), bekannt sind, besitzt CDMA signifikante Vorteile gegenüber diesen anderen Techniken. Die Verwendung von CDMA-Techniken in einem Mehrfachzugangskommunikationssystem ist offenbart im US-Patent mit der Seriennr. 06/921,261, eingereicht am 17. Oktober 1986, mit dem Titel "SPREAD SPECTRUM MULTIPLE ACCESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING SATTELLITE OR TERRESTRIAL REPEATERS", nunmehr US-Patent Nr. 4,901,307, welches dem Anmelder der vorliegenden Erfindung gehört und dessen Offenbarung hiermit durch Bezugnahme aufgenommen wird.The Use of CDMA Modulation Techniques (CDMA = Code Division Multiple Access = code division multiple access) is one of several techniques to facilitate communication, involving a large number of system users. Although other techniques, such as TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) Frequency Division Multiple Access and AM modulation method, such as ACSSB (Amplitude Companded Single Sideband), CDMA has significant advantages over these other techniques. The use of CDMA techniques in a multiple access communication system is disclosed in U.S. Patent Serial No. 06 / 921,261, filed on October 17, 1986, entitled "SPREAD SPECTRUM MULTIPLE ACCESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING SATELLITE OR TERRESTRIAL REPEATERS ", now US Pat. No. 4,901,307, assigned to the assignee of the present invention Invention belongs and the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
In dem erwähnten Patent wird eine Mehrfachzugangstechnik offenbart, in der eine große Anzahl von Mobiltelefonsystembenutzern jeweils einen Transceiver (Sender/Empfänger) besitzt, welcher über Satellitenrelaisstationen bzw. -repeater oder terrestrische Basisstationen (auch bekannt als Zellenstationen) kommunizieren unter Verwendung von CDMA-Spreizspektrumkommunikationssignalen. Bei der Verwendung von CDMA-Übertragungstechniken kann das Frequenzspektrum mehrere Male wiederverwendet werden, wodurch ein Anstieg in der Systembenutzerkapazität gestattet wird. Die Verwendung von CDMA ergibt eine viel höhere spektrale Effizienz, als sie bei Verwendung anderer Mehrfachzugangstechniken erreicht werden kann. In einen CDMA-System können Anstiege der Systemkapazität realisiert werden durch Steuern der Senderleistung jedes mobilen Benutzers, um die Interferenz mit anderen Systembenutzern zu vermindern.In the mentioned Patent discloses a multiple access technique in which a large number of mobile phone system users each have a transceiver (transceiver), which over Satellite relay stations or repeaters or terrestrial base stations (also known as Cell Stations) communicate using of CDMA spread spectrum communication signals. When using of CDMA transmission techniques the frequency spectrum can be reused several times, thereby an increase in system user capacity is allowed. The usage from CDMA gives a much higher spectral efficiency, as compared to other multiple access techniques can be achieved. Increases in system capacity can be realized in a CDMA system are controlled by controlling the transmitter power of each mobile user, to reduce interference with other system users.
Bei der Satellitenanwendung von CDMA-Kommunikationstechniken mißt der Transceiver (Sender/Empfänger) der mobilen Einheit den Leistungspegel eines von einer Satellitenrelaisstation empfangenen Signals. Unter Verwendung dieser Leistungsmessung zusammen mit Kenntnis der Satellitentransponder-Abwärtsverbindungsübertragungsleistungspegels und der Empfindlichkeit des Empfängers der Mobileinheit kann der Transceiver der mobilen Einheit den Pfadverlust des Kanals zwischen der Mobileinheit und dem Satelliten abschätzen. Der Transceiver der Mobileinheit bestimmt dann die angemessene Senderleistung, die für Signalübertragungen zwischen der Mobileinheit und dem Satelliten verwendet werden muß, und zwar unter Berücksichtigung der Pfadverlustmessung, der Datenübertragungsrate und der Satellitenempfängerempfindlichkeit.at In the satellite application of CDMA communication techniques, the transceiver (transmitter / receiver) of the mobile unit, the power level of a received from a satellite relay station Signal. Using this power measurement along with knowledge the satellite transponder downlink transmission power level and the sensitivity of the receiver In the mobile unit, the transceiver of the mobile unit may track loss of the channel between the mobile unit and the satellite. Of the Mobile unit transceiver then determines the appropriate transmitter power, the for signal transmissions between the mobile unit and the satellite, namely considering path loss measurement, data transfer rate, and satellite receiver sensitivity.
Die von der Mobileinheit zu dem Satelliten übertragenen Signale werden von dem Satelliten an eine Erdstation eines zentralen Steuersystems weiter gegeben. Die Zentrale mißt die empfangene Signalleistung aus Signalen, die von jedem aktiven Mobileinheitstransceiver übertragen werden. Die Zentrale (Hub) bestimmt dann die Abweichung des empfangenen Leistungspegels von demjenigen, der notwendig ist, um die gewünschten Verbindungen aufrechtzuerhalten. Vorzugsweise ist der erwünschte Leistungspegel ein minimaler Leistungspegel, der notwendig ist, um gute Übertragungen aufrechtzuerhalten, um so eine Verminderung der Systeminterferenz zu ergeben.The be transmitted from the mobile unit to the satellite signals from the satellite to an earth station of a central control system passed on. The central unit measures the received signal power from signals coming from each active Mobile unit transceiver transmit become. The center (hub) then determines the deviation of the received Achievement level of the one who is necessary to the desired Maintain connections. Preferably, the desired power level a minimum power level necessary to make good transfers maintain a reduction in system interference to surrender.
Die Zentrale (Hub) sendet dann ein Leistungssteuerungsbefehlssignal an jeden mobilen Benutzer, um die Sendeleistung der Mobileinheit einzustellen oder fein abzustimmen ("fine tune"). Dieses Befehlssignal wird von der Mobileinheit dazu verwendet, den Sendeleistungspegel zu ändern, und zwar näher zu einem minima len Pegel hin, der erforderlich ist, um die gewünschten Verbindungen bzw. Übertragungen aufrechtzuerhalten. Wenn sich die Kanalbedingungen ändern, und zwar typischerweise auf Grund von Bewegung der Mobileinheit, passen sowohl die Mobileinheitsempfängerleistungsmessung als auch die Leistungssteuerungsrückkopplung von der Zentrale kontinuierlich den Sendeleistungspegel neu an, um so einen ordnungsgemäßen Leistungspegel aufrechtzuerhalten. Die Leistungsteuerungsrückkopplung von der Zentrale ist im allgemeinen ziemlich langsam auf Grund der Verzögerungen durch den Signalweg zum Satelliten und zurück, was ungefähr eine 1/2 Sekunde Laufzeit benötigt.The Central (hub) then sends a power control command signal to each mobile user, the transmit power of the mobile unit to adjust or finely tune ("fine tune"). This command signal is issued by the Mobile unit used to change the transmission power level, and while closer to a minimum level required to achieve the desired levels Connections or transmissions maintain. If the channel conditions change, and typically due to movement of the mobile unit both mobile unit receiver power measurement also the power control feedback from the control center continuously changes the transmission power level, so a proper power level maintain. The power control feedback from the control panel is generally slow due to delays the signal path to the satellite and back, what about one 1/2 second runtime needed.
Ein wichtiger Unterschied zwischen Satelliten- und terrestrischen Basisstationsystemen sind die relativen Entfernungen, die die Mobileinheiten und den Satelliten oder die Zellenstation trennen. Ein weiterer wichtiger Unterschied beim Satellitensystem gegenüber dem terrestrischen System besteht in der Art des Fadings oder Schwunds, das bzw. der bei diesen Kanälen auftritt. Somit erfordern diese Unterschiede verschiedene Anpassungen bei der Systemleistungssteuerung für das terrestrische System.An important difference between satellite and terrestrial base station systems is the relative distances separating the mobile units and the satellite or cell station. Another important difference in the satellite system compared to the terrestrial system is the Type of fading or fading that occurs on these channels. Thus, these differences require various adjustments in system performance control for the terrestrial system.
Im Satelliten/Mobileinheitskanal, d.h. dem Satellitenkanal, sind die Satellitenrelaisstationen normalerweise in einem geostationären Orbit angeordnet. Somit sind die Mobileinheiten alle ungefähr um den gleichen Abstand von den Satellitenrelaisstationen entfernt und erfahren daher nahezu den gleichen Ausbreitungsverlust. Ferner hat der Satellitenkanal eine Ausbreitungsverlustcharakteristik, die ungefähr der Invers-Quadrat-Regel folgt, d. h. der Ausbreitungsverlust ist umgekehrt proportional zum Quadrat der Entfernung zwischen der Mobileinheit und der verwendeten Satellitenrelaisstation. Entsprechend ist beim Satellitenkanal die Änderung beim Pfadverlust auf Grund von Entfernungsänderungen typischerweise im Bereich von nur 1-2 dB.in the Satellite / Mobile Unit Channel, i. the satellite channel, are the Satellite relay stations normally in a geostationary orbit arranged. Thus, the mobile units are all about the same same distance away from the satellite relay stations and therefore experience almost the same propagation loss. Further has the satellite channel has a propagation loss characteristic, the about the Inverse-square rule follows, d. H. the propagation loss is reversed proportional to the square of the distance between the mobile unit and the satellite relay station used. Corresponding to the Satellite channel the change path loss due to range changes typically in the Range of only 1-2 dB.
Im Gegensatz zum Satellitenkanal kann beim Terrestrisch/Mobileinheitskanal, d. h. dem terrestrischen Kanal, der Abstand zwischen den Mobileinheiten und den Zellenstationen beträchtlich variieren. Beispielsweise kann eine Mobileinheit in einer Entfernung von fünf Meilen von der Zellenstation angeordnet sein, während eine andere Mobileinheit nur wenige Fuß davon entfernt angeordnet sein kann. Die Variation der Entfernung kann den Faktor von 100:1 überschreiten. Der terrestrische Kanal unterliegt einer Ausbreitungsverlustcharakteristik wie es der Satellitenkanal tut. Jedoch entspricht beim terrestrischen Kanal die Ausbreitungsverlustcharakteristik einer Regel mit inverser vierter Potenz, d.h. der Pfadverlust ist proportional zum Inversen des Pfadabstands in der vierten Potenz. Entsprechend können Pfadverluständerungen auftreten, die im Bereich von mehr als 80 dB sind, und zwar in einer Zelle mit einem Radius von fünf Meilen.in the Unlike the satellite channel, the terrestrial / mobile unit channel, d. H. the terrestrial channel, the distance between the mobile units and the cell stations considerably vary. For example, a mobile unit may be at a distance of five Be located miles from the cell station while another mobile unit only a few feet away can be arranged remotely. The variation of the distance can exceed the factor of 100: 1. The terrestrial channel is subject to propagation loss characteristics as does the satellite channel. However corresponds to terrestrial Channel the propagation loss characteristic of a rule with inverse fourth power, i. the path loss is proportional to the inverse the path distance in the fourth power. Accordingly, path loss changes occur in the range of more than 80 dB, in one Cell with a radius of five Miles.
Beim Satellitenkanal tritt typischerweise ein Schwund oder Fading auf, der bzw. das als riccisch charakterisiert werden kann. Entsprechend besteht das empfangene Signal aus einer direkten Komponente summiert mit einer mehrfach reflektierten Komponente mit rayleighscher Schwund- bzw. Fading-Statistik. Das Leistungsverhältnis zwischen der direkten und der reflektierten Komponente ist typischerweise in der Größenordnung von 6-10 dB, und zwar abhängig von den Charakteristika der Mobileinheit-Antenne und der Umgebung um die Mobileinheit herum.At the Satellite channel typically fades or fades, which can be characterized as Ricic. Corresponding the received signal is summed from a direct component with a multiply reflected component with Rayleigh fading or fading statistics. The performance ratio between the direct and the reflected component is typically of the order of magnitude of 6-10 dB, depending from the characteristics of the mobile unit antenna and the environment around the mobile unit.
Bei Gegenüberstellung des Satellitenkanals mit dem terrestrischen Kanal tritt beim terrestrischen Kanal ein Signalschwund bzw. Signal-Fading auf, der bzw. das typischerweise aus der rayleighschen Schwundkomponente ohne eine direkte Komponente besteht. Somit bietet der terrestrische Kanal eine stärkere Schwundumgebung als der Satellitenkanal, bei dem der riccische Schwund die dominante Schwundcharakteristik ist.at Confrontation of the satellite channel with the terrestrial channel occurs at the terrestrial channel signal fading, which is typically consists of the Rayleigh fading component without a direct component. Thus, the terrestrial channel provides a stronger fading environment than the Satellite channel where the Riconic fading has the dominant fading characteristic is.
Die rayleighschen Schwundcharakteristika beim Signal des terrestrischen Kanals werden dadurch verursacht, daß das Signal von vielen verschiedenen Eigenschaften oder Merkmalen (Gegenständen) der physischen Umgebung reflektiert wird. Infolgedessen kommt das Signal aus vielen verschiedenen Richtungen mit verschiedenen Übertragungsverzögerungen fast gleichzeitig bei einem Mobileinheitsempfänger an. Bei den Ultrahochfrequenzbändern, die üblicherweise für Mobilfunkkommunikation einschließlich der zellulären Mobiltelefonsysteme verwendet werden, können signifikante Phasenunterschiede bei Signalen auftreten, die verschiedenen Pfaden folgen. Die Möglichkeit destruktiver Addition der Signale kann sich ergeben, wobei sich gelegentlich Tiefschwünde ergeben können.The rayleigh Schwundcharakteristika the signal of the terrestrial Channels are caused by the fact that the signal from many different Properties or characteristics (objects) of the physical environment is reflected. As a result, the signal comes from many different ones Directions with different transmission delays almost simultaneously to a mobile unit receiver. In the ultra-high frequency bands, usually for mobile communications including the cellular Mobile phone systems can use significant phase differences occur on signals that follow different paths. The possibility Destructive addition of the signals may result, where occasionally Tiefschwünde can result.
Der Schwund des terrestrischen Kanals ist stark abhängig von der physischen Position der Mobileinheit. Eine kleine Änderung der Position der Mobileinheit verändert die physischen Verzögerungen aller Signalausbreitungspfade, was ferner eine unterschiedliche Phase für jeden Pfad ergibt. Beispielsweise kann die Bewegung der Mobileinheit einen relativ schnellen Schwund im zellulären 850-MHz-Funkfrequenzband ergeben, wobei dieser Schwund typischerweise bis zu einem Schwund (fade) pro Sekunde pro Meile pro Stunde Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit sein kann. Ein Schwund in dieser Größenordnung kann für Signale im terrestrischen Kanal extrem unterbrechend sein, was eine schlechte Kommunikationsqualität ergibt. Jedoch kann zusätzliche Senderleistung dazu verwendet werden, das Problem des Schwunds zu überwinden.Of the Weakness of the terrestrial channel is highly dependent on the physical position the mobile unit. A small change the position of the mobile unit alters the physical delays of all Signal propagation paths, which also has a different phase for each Path yields. For example, the movement of the mobile unit may be a relatively fast fading in the 850 MHz cellular radio frequency band, this fading typically up to one fade per second per mile can be vehicle speed per hour. A loss in this Magnitude can for Signals in the terrestrial channel be extremely disruptive, giving a poor communication quality results. However, additional transmitter power used to overcome the problem of shrinkage.
Das terrestrische zelluläre Mobiltelefonsystem erfordert typischerweise, daß ein Voll-Duplex-Kanal vorgesehen ist, um zu gestatten, daß beide Richtungen der Telefonkonversation gleichzeitig aktiv sind, wie es beim herkömmlichen verdrahteten Telefonsystem vorgesehen ist. Dieser Voll-Duplex-Funkkanal ist normalerweise vorgesehen durch Verwenden eines Frequenzbands für die nach außen gehende Verbindung, d. h. Übertragungen von dem Zellenstationssender zu den Mobileinheitsempfängern. Ein unterschiedliches Frequenzband wird verwendet für die hereinkommende Verbindung, d. h. Übertragungen von den Mobileinheitssendern zu den Zellenstationsempfängern. Entsprechend gestattet diese Frequenzbandtrennung, daß ein Sender und Empfänger einer Mobileinheit gleichzeitig aktiv sind ohne Rückkopplung oder Interferenz des Senders mit dem Empfänger.The terrestrial cellular A mobile phone system typically requires that a full-duplex channel be provided is to allow both directions the phone conversation are active at the same time, as is the case with conventional wired telephone system is provided. This full-duplex radio channel is usually provided by using a frequency band for the outward going connection, d. H. transfers from the cell-site transmitter to the mobile unit receivers. A different one Frequency band is used for the incoming connection, d. H. Transmissions from the mobile unit transmitters to the cell-site receivers. Accordingly, this frequency band separation allows a transmitter and receiver of one Mobile units are active at the same time without feedback or interference the transmitter with the receiver.
Beim herkömmlichen zellulären Telefonsystem ist das verfügbare Frequenzband unterteilt in Kanäle, die typischerweise eine Bandbreite von 30 KHz besitzen, während analoge Frequenzmodulationstechniken verwendet werden. Der Systembedienungsbereich ist geographisch unterteilt in Zellen verschiedener Größe. Die verfügbaren Frequenzkanäle sind unterteilt in Sätze oder Gruppen, wobei jeder Satz bzw. jede Gruppe üblicherweise eine gleiche Anzahl von Kanälen enthält. Die Frequenzsätze werden den Zellen derart zugeordnet, daß die Möglichkeit von Gleichkanalinterferenz minimiert wird. Es sei beispielsweise ein System betrachtet, bei dem sieben Frequenzsätze vorhanden sind und die Zellen gleich große Sechsecke sind. Ein in einer Zelle verwendeter Frequenzsatz wird in den sechs nächsten oder umgebenden Nachbarn dieser Zelle nicht verwendet. Ferner wird der Frequenzsatz in einer Zelle nicht in den zwölf nächsten Nachbarn dieser Zelle verwendet.In the conventional cellular telephone system, the available frequency band is divided into Ka channels, which typically have a bandwidth of 30 KHz, while using analog frequency modulation techniques. The system operation area is divided geographically into cells of different sizes. The available frequency channels are divided into sets or groups, where each set or group usually contains an equal number of channels. The frequency sets are assigned to the cells such that the possibility of co-channel interference is minimized. For example, consider a system in which there are seven frequency sets and the cells are equal size hexagons. A frequency set used in a cell is not used in the six nearest or surrounding neighbors of that cell. Further, the frequency set in a cell is not used in the twelve closest neighbors of that cell.
Beim herkömmlichen zellulären Telefonsystem soll das implementierte Übergabeschema gestatten, daß ein Gespräch fortgesetzt wird, wenn ein Mobiltelefon die Grenze zwischen zwei Zellen überquert. Die Übergabe von einer Zelle zur anderen wird eingeleitet, wenn der Zellenstationsempfänger, welcher das Gespräch behandelt, bemerkt, daß die empfangene Signalstärke von dem Mobiltelefon unter einen vorbestimmten Schwellenwert fällt. Eine niedrige Signalstärkeanzeige bedeutet, daß das Mobiltelefon nahe der Zellengrenze sein muß. Wenn der Signalpegel unter den vorbestimmten Schwellenwert fällt, bittet die Zellenstation die Systemsteuereinheit zu bestimmen, ob eine benachbarte Zellenstation das Mobiltelefonsignal mit einer besseren Signalstärke empfängt als die derzeitige Zellenstation.At the usual cellular Telephone system should allow the implemented handover scheme that a call continues becomes when a mobile phone crosses the border between two cells. The handover from one cell to another is initiated when the cell-site receiver, which the conversation treated, noticed that the received signal strength from the mobile phone falls below a predetermined threshold. A low signal strength indicator means that Mobile phone must be near the cell boundary. When the signal level is below falls below the predetermined threshold, the cell station asks the system controller to determine if an adjacent cell site receives the mobile signal with a better signal strength than the current cell station.
Die Systemsteuereinheit sendet ansprechend auf die derzeitige Zellenstationsanfrage Nachrichten an die benachbarten Zellenstationen mit einer Übergabeanfrage. Die zu der derzeitigen Zellenstation benachbarten Zellenstationen verwenden spezielle Abtastempfänger, die auf einem speziellen Kanal nach dem Signal von der Mobileinheit suchen. Sollte einer der benachbarten Zellenstationen der Systemsteuereinheit einen angemessenen Signalpegel angeben, dann wird eine Übergabe versucht.The System controller sends in response to the current cell-site request Messages to the neighboring cell sites with a transfer request. The cell stations adjacent to the current cell site use special scanning receivers, on a special channel according to the signal from the mobile unit search. Should one of the neighboring cell stations of the system control unit indicate an appropriate signal level, then a handover tries.
Die Übergabe (Handoff) wird dann eingeleitet, wenn ein leerer bzw. unbenutzer Kanal aus dem in der neuen Zellenstation verwendeten Kanalsatz ausgewählt ist. Eine Steuer- bzw. Kontrollnachricht wird an das Mobiltelefon geschickt und befiehlt, daß es von dem derzeitigen Kanal zu dem neuen Kanal umschaltet. Gleichzeitig schaltet die Systemsteuereinheit das Gespräch von der ersten Zellenstation zu der zweiten Zellenstation. Bei dem herkömmlichen System wird ein sogenanntes "break-before-make"-Schema verwendet, so daß kein Diversity-Empfang bei überkommendem Schwinden möglich ist.The handover (Handoff) is initiated when empty or unused Channel selected from the channel set used in the new cell site. A control message is sent to the mobile phone and orders it switches from the current channel to the new channel. simultaneously the system control unit switches the call from the first cell station to the second cell station. In the conventional system, a so-called "break-before-make" scheme is used, so that no Diversity reception in case of overcoming Shrinkage possible is.
Sollte das Mobiltelefon den Befehl zum Umschalten der Kanäle nicht hören, wird darüberhinaus die Übergabe fehlschlagen. Die tatsächliche Betriebserfahrung zeigt, daß mißglückte Übergaben häufig auftreten, was die Zuverlässigkeit des Systems in Frage stellt.Should the mobile phone does not command to switch channels Listen, is beyond the handover fail. The actual Operating experience shows that unsuccessful handovers occur frequently what the reliability of the system in question.
Beim herkömmlichen zellulären Telefonsystem beeinträchtigt ein Pfadschwund (path-fading) die Kommunikation und kann eine Unterbrechung eines Gesprächs bewirken. Es ist daher ein Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung, bei einem zellulären Telefonsystem eine Empfängerkonstruktion vorzusehen, die den Empfang und die Verarbeitung der stärksten, von einer oder mehreren Zellenstationen übertragenen Signalen erleichtert, wobei diese Signale mehr Pfadsignale von einer einzigen Zellenstation sind oder Signale sind, die von mehreren Zellenstationen übertragen wurden.At the usual cellular Phone system compromised a path fading (communication) and communication can be an interruption a conversation cause. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a cellular Telephone system a receiver construction providing for the reception and processing of the strongest, facilitates signals transmitted by one or more cell stations, these signals being more path signals from a single cell station are or are signals transmitted by multiple cell sites were.
Bezüglich des Standes der Technik wird auch auf US-A-4 291 410 verwiesen, das sich auf einen Mehrpfadspreizspektrumkommunikationsempfänger bezieht.Regarding the The prior art is also referred to US-A-4,291,410 which refers to a multipath spread spectrum communication receiver.
Zusammenfassung der ErfindungSummary the invention
Dieses Ziel wird durch ein Empfängersubsystem, wie es in dem unabhängigen Anspruch 1 beansprucht ist, erreicht. Bei einem zellullären CDMA-Telefonsystem wird das gleiche Frequenzband für die Kommunikation in allen Zellen verwendet. Die CDMA-Wellenformeigenschaften, die eine Verarbeitungsverstärkung vorsehen, werden auch dazu verwendet, zwischen Signalen zu unterscheiden, die das gleiche Frequenzband besitzen. Ferner gestattet die Hochgeschwindigkeits-Pseudorauschen-Modulation (Pseudorauschen = pseudonoise = PN), daß viele verschiedene Ausbreitungspfade getrennt bzw. unterschieden werden, vorausgesetzt, daß die Differenz bei den Pfadausbreitungsverzögerungen die PN-Chipdauer oder 1/Bandbreite übersteigt. Wenn eine PN-Chiprate von 1 MHz in einem CDMA-System verwendet wird, kann die volle Spreizspektrumverarbeitungsverstärkung, die gleich dem Verhältnis der Spreizbandbreite zu der Systemdatenrate ist, gegenüber Pfaden verwendet werden, die sich um mehr als eine Mikrosekunde an Pfadverzegerung von dem gewünschten Pfad unterscheiden. Eine Pfadverzögerungsdifferenz von einer Mikrosekunde entspricht einer Pfadentfernungdifferenz von 1000 Fuß. Die städtische Umgebung sieht typischerweise Pfadverzögerungsdifferenzen von mehr als einer Mikrosekunde vor, und bis zu 10 bis 20 Mikrosekunden wurden für einige Gebiete berichtet.This The goal is achieved by a recipient subsystem, as it is in the independent Claim 1, reached. In a cellular CDMA phone system will be the same frequency band for used the communication in all cells. The CDMA waveform properties, the one processing gain are also used to distinguish between signals, which have the same frequency band. Furthermore, the high-speed pseudonoise modulation allows (Pseudonoise = pseudonoise = PN) that many different propagation paths be distinguished, provided that the difference at the path propagation delays the PN chip duration or 1 / bandwidth exceeds. If a 1 MHz PN chip rate is used in a CDMA system, For example, the full spread spectrum processing gain equal to the ratio of the spread bandwidth to the system data rate is to be used opposite paths which is more than a microsecond of path distortion of the desired Distinguish path. A path delay difference of one Microseconds equals a path distance difference of 1000 feet. The urban Environment typically sees path delay differences of more as one microsecond, and up to 10 to 20 microseconds for some Areas reported.
In schmalbandigen Modulationssystemen, wie beispielsweise der analogen Frequenzmodulation, die bei herkömmlichen Telefonsystemen verwendet wird, ergibt das Vorhandensein mehrfacher Pfade einen starken Mehrpfadschwund. Bei der breitbandigen CDMA-Modulation können jedoch in dem Demodulationsprozeß verschiedene Pfade unterschieden werden. Diese Unterscheidung verhindert stark das Ausmaß von Mehrpfadschwund. Mehrpfadschwund wird typischerweise nicht beseitigt durch Verwendung der CDMA-Unterscheidungstechniken, weil gelegentlich Pfade vorhanden sind mit Verzögerungsdifferenzen von weniger als der minimalen Pfadverzögerung für das bestimmte System. Signale mit Pfadverzögerungen in dieser Größenordnung können in dem Demodulator nicht voneinander unterschieden werden. Es ist daher erwünscht, daß das System Diversity vorsieht, um die Wirkungen des Schwunds bzw. Fadings weiter zu vermindern.Narrow-band modulation systems, such as the analog frequency modulation used in conventional telephone systems, result in the presence of multiple paths a strong multipath shrinkage. In broadband CDMA modulation, however, different paths can be distinguished in the demodulation process. This distinction severely prevents the extent of multipath fading. Multipath fading is typically not eliminated by using CDMA discrimination techniques because there are occasional paths with delay differences less than the minimum path delay for the particular system. Signals with path delays of this order can not be distinguished from each other in the demodulator. It is therefore desirable that the system provide diversity to further reduce the effects of fading.
Die schädlichen Fading-Wirkungen können in gewissem Maße gesteuert werden durch Steuern der Senderleistung in einem CDMA-System. Ein System zur Leistungsteuerung von Zellenstation und Mobileinheit ist offenbart im US- Patent US-A-5 056 109, ausgegeben am 8. Oktober 1991, mit dem Titel "METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING TRANSMISSIONS POWER IN A CDMA CELLULAR MOBILE TELEPHONE SYSTEM", Seriennr. 07/433,031, eingereicht am 7. November 1989 von den gleichen Erfindern und vom gleichen Anmelder wie die vorliegende Erfindung. Ferner kann die Wirkung von Mehrpfad-Fading in dem Übergabemodus (handoff mode) vermindert werden, wenn die Mobileinheit zwischen Zellenstationsbereichen übergeht, während die Mobileinheit während des Übergabevorgangs mit den Zellenstationen kommuniziert. Das Übergabeschema ist offenbart im US-Patent US-A-5 101 501, ausgegeben am 31. März 1992, mit dem Titel "SOFT HANDOFF IN A CDMA CELLULAR TELEPHONE SYSTEM", Seriennr. 07/433,030, eingereicht am 7. November 1989 von den gleichen Erfindern und dem Anmelder der vorliegenden Erfindung.The harmful Fading effects can occur in to some extent be controlled by controlling the transmitter power in a CDMA system. A system for power control of cell-site and mobile unit is disclosed in US Patent US-A-5 056,109, issued October 8, 1991, entitled "METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING TRANSMISSION POWER IN A CDMA CELLULAR MOBILE TELEPHONE SYSTEM ", Serial No. 07 / 433,031, filed on 7 November 1989 by the same inventors and of the same applicant as the present invention. Furthermore, the Effect of multipath fading in the transfer mode (handoff mode) is reduced as the mobile unit transitions between cell station areas while the mobile unit is switching between cell station areas Mobile unit during the transfer process communicates with the cell stations. The transfer scheme is disclosed in US Pat. No. 5,101,501, issued Mar. 31, 1992, entitled "SOFT HANDOFF IN A CDMA CELLULAR TELEPHONE SYSTEM ", Ser. 07 / 433,030, filed on November 7, 1989 by the same Inventors and the assignee of the present invention.
Das Vorhandensein von Mehrpfaden kann Pfad-Diversity für ein Breitband-PN-CDMA-System vorsehen. Wenn zwei oder mehr Pfade verfügbar sind mit einer Pfadverzögerungsdifferenz von mehr als einer Mikrosekunde, können zwei oder mehr PN-Empfänger dazu verwendet werden, diese Signale getrennt zu empfangen. Da diese Signale typischerweise bezüglich des Mehrpfad-Fadings unabhän gig sind, d. h. sie schwinden üblicherweise nicht gemeinsam, können die Ausgaben der zwei Empfänger diversity-kombiniert werden. Daher tritt ein Leistungs- bzw. Funktionsverlust nur dann auf, wenn bei beiden Empfängern gleichzeitig Fading auftritt. Daher ist ein Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung, daß zwei oder mehr PN-Empfänger in Kombination mit einem Diversity-Combiner vorgesehen werden.The Presence of multipaths may provide path diversity for a wideband PN-CDMA system. When two or more paths are available with a path delay difference of more than one microsecond, two or more PN receivers can do so be used to receive these signals separately. This one Signals are typically related of multipath fading independently are, d. H. they usually disappear not together, can the expenses of the two recipients diversity-combined. Therefore, a loss of performance or function occurs only if both receivers fade at the same time. Therefore, one aspect of the present invention is that two or three more PN receiver in combination with a diversity combiner.
Ein weiterer Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, daß, wenn sich eine Mobileinheit durch die tatsächliche oder physische Umgebung bewegt, sich die Anzahl von mehrfachen Pfaden und ihrer Signalstärken konstant ändert. Die vorliegende Erfindung verwendet daher einen speziellen Empfänger, genannt Sucherempfänger, welcher konstant den Zeitbereich des Kanals abtastet bzw. überstreicht, um das Vorhandensein, die Stelle im Zeitbereich und die relativen Signalstärken von Signalen in der Mehrpfadumgebung zu bestimmen. Der Sucherempfänger sieht eine Steuerung der Datenempfänger vor, in dem die besten Signale gesucht werden, die auf den verschiedenen Pfaden verfügbar sind.One Another aspect of the present invention is that when a mobile unit through the physical or physical environment moves, the number of multiple paths and their signal strengths constantly changes. The The present invention therefore uses a special receiver called Searcher receiver, which constantly scans or sweeps over the time domain of the channel, the presence, the location in the time domain, and the relative signal strength of signals in the multipath environment. The viewfinder receiver sees a control of the data receiver in which the best signals are sought on the different ones Paths available are.
Bei einem zellulären CDMA-Telefonsystem besitzt jede Zellenstation eine Vielzahl von Modulator-Demodulator-Einheiten oder Spreizspektrum-Modems. Jedes Modem besteht aus einem digitalen Spreizspektrumsendemodulator, mindestens einem digitalen Spreizspektrumdatenempfänger und einem Sucherempfänger. Jedes Modem an der Zellenstation ist je nach Bedarf einer Mobileinheit zugeordnet, um die Kommunikation mit der zugeordneten Mobileinheit zu erleichtern. Daher sind in vielen Fällen viele Modems zur Verwendung verfügbar, während andere aktiv sein können durch Kommunikation mit jeweiligen Mobileinheiten. Ein weiches Übergabeschema (soft handoff) wird für ein zelläres CDMA-Telefonsystem verwendet, bei dem ein neues Zellenstationsmodem einer Mobileinheit zugeordnet wird, während die alte Zellenstation die Verbindung aufrechterhält bzw. das Gespräch fortsetzt. Wenn die Mobileinheit in dem Übergangsbereich zwischen zwei Zellenstationen angeordnet ist, kann der Anruf zwischen den Zellenstationen hin- und hergeschaltet werden, je nachdem wie es die Signalstärke vorschreibt. Da die Mobileinheit immer über mindestens eine Zellenstation kommuniziert, werden keine Unterbrechungseffekte bei der Mobileinheit oder bei der Verbindung auftreten. Die vorliegende Erfindung verwendet mehrfache Empfän ger in der Mobileinheit, die auch in einer Diversity-Funktion verwendet werden, und zwar beim Übergabevorgang oder fest in einer einzigen Zelle.at a cellular CDMA telephone system, each cell station has a variety of Modulator-demodulator units or spread spectrum modems. each Modem consists of a digital spread spectrum demodulator, at least one digital spread spectrum data receiver and a viewfinder receiver. Each modem at the cell site is a mobile unit as needed assigned to communicate with the associated mobile unit to facilitate. Therefore, many modems are in many cases for use available, while others can be active by communicating with respective mobile units. A soft transfer scheme (soft handoff) is for a cellular one CDMA telephone system used in which a new mobile station cell station modem is assigned while the old cell station maintains the connection or continues the call. If the mobile unit is in the transition area is arranged between two cell stations, the call can be between the cell stations are switched back and forth, depending on how it's the signal strength prescribes. Since the mobile unit always has at least one cell station communicates, no break effects on the mobile unit or occur at the connection. The present invention uses multiple Receiver in the mobile unit, which also uses a diversity function be, during the transfer process or stuck in a single cell.
Bei dem zellulären CDMA-Telefonsystem überträgt jede Zellenstation ein "Pilot-Träger"-Signal. Dieses Pilotsignal wird von den Mobileinheiten dazu verwendet, eine anfängliche Systemsynchronisation zu erhalten und ein robustes Zeit-, Frequenz- und Phasenverfolgen der von der Zellenstation übertragenen Signale vorzusehen.at the cellular CDMA phone system transmits each Cell station a "pilot carrier" signal. This pilot signal is used by the mobile units to an initial System synchronization and provide a robust time, frequency, and phase tracking the signals transmitted by the cell station.
Jede Zellenstation überträgt auch einen "Einrichtungs"- oder "Einstell"-Kanal ("Setup"-Kanal), der aus spreizspektrummodulierter Information besteht, wie beispielsweise Zellenstationidentifizierung, Systemzeitabstimmung, Mobilrufinformation und verschiedenen anderen Steuersignalen. Das von jeder Zellenstation übertragene Pilotsignal besitzt den gleichen Spreizcode, aber eine unterschiedliche Codephasenversetzung. Die Phasenversetzung gestattet, daß die Pilotsignale voneinander unterschieden werden können, was eine Unterscheidung zwischen Zellenstationen ergibt, von denen sie ausgehen. Die Verwendung des gleichen Pilotsignalcodes gestattet der Mobileinheit, an Hand einer einzigen Suche durch alle Pilotsignalcodephasen eine Systemzeitabstimmungsynchronisation zu finden. Das stärkste Pilotsignal, wie es durch einen Korrelationsprozeß für jede Codephase bestimmt wird, kann leicht identifiziert werden. Das identifizierte Pilotsignal entspricht dem Pilotsignal, daß von der nächsten Zellenstation übertragen wird.Each cell site also transmits a "setup" or "setup" channel consisting of spread spectrum modulated information, such as cell station identification, system timing, mobile call information, and various other control signals. The pilot signal transmitted from each cell station has the same spreading code but a different code phase offset. The phase shift allows that the pilot signals can be distinguished from one another, which results in a distinction between cell stations from which they originate. The use of the same pilot signal code allows the mobile unit to find a system timing synchronization based on a single search through all pilot signal code phases. The strongest pilot signal, as determined by a correlation process for each code phase, can be easily identified. The identified pilot signal corresponds to the pilot signal transmitted from the next cell station.
Nach Erhalt des stärksten Pilotsignals, d. h. anfänglicher Synchronisation der Mobileinheit mit dem stärksten Pilotsignal, sucht die Mobileinheit nach dem geeigneten Einrichtungskanal dieser Zellenstation. Der Einrichtungskanal wird von der Zellenstation übertragen unter Verwendung eines von einer Vielzahl von verschiedenen vorbestimmten Spreizspektrumcodes. Bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung werden 21 verschiedene Codes verwendet. Es sei jedoch bemerkt, daß mehr oder weniger Codes für den Einrichtungskanal verwendet werden könnten, je nachdem wie es durch die Systemparameter bestimmt wird. Die Mobileinheit beginnt dann eine Suche durch alle verschiedenen Codes, die in dem Einrichtungskanal verwendet werden.To Receiving the strongest Pilot signal, d. H. initial Synchronization of the mobile unit with the strongest pilot signal, seeks the Mobile unit to the appropriate device channel of this cell station. The facility channel is transmitted from the cell station using one of a plurality of different predetermined spread spectrum codes. In one embodiment The present invention uses 21 different codes. It should be noted, however, that more or less codes for The furnishing channel could be used, depending on how it went through the System parameter is determined. The mobile unit then starts one Search through all the different codes in the setup channel be used.
Wenn die Mobileinheit den richtigen Einrichtungs- oder Einstellcode für diese Zellenstation identifiziert, wird Systeminformation empfangen und verarbeitet. Die Mobileinheit überwacht weiterhin den Einrichtungs- bzw. Einstellkanal hinsichtlich Steuernachrichten. Eine solche Steuernachricht würde anzeigen, daß ein Anruf auf die Übertragung zu dieser Mobileinheit wartet.If the mobile unit will have the correct setup or setup code for it Cell station is identified, system information is received and processed. The mobile unit is monitoring continue the setup channel for control messages. Such a control message would show that a Call on the transmission waiting for this mobile unit.
Die Mobileinheit fährt fort, den empfangenen Pilotträgersignalcode bei den Codeversetzungen abzutasten, die den von den benachbarten Zellenstationen übertragenen Pilotsignalen entsprechen. Dieses Abtasten wird durchgeführt um zu bestimmen, ob das von den benachbarten Zellen ausgehende Pilotsignal stärker wird als das zuerst als stärkstes bestimmte Pilotsignal. Wenn in diesem Modus mit nicht-aktiver Verbindung bzw. ohne Anruf, ein Pilotsignal einer benachbarten Zellenstation stärker wird als das von der anfänglichen Zellenstation übertragene Pilotsignal, übernimmt die Mobileinheit das stärkere Pilotsignal und den entsprechenden Einrichtungskanal der neuen Zellenstation.The Mobile unit is running continue to receive the received pilot carrier signal code to scan at the code displacements, that of the neighboring Cell stations transmitted Correspond to pilot signals. This sampling is performed to determine whether the pilot signal originating from the neighboring cells stronger is considered the strongest first certain pilot signal. When in this mode with non-active connection or without a call, a pilot signal of a neighboring cell station stronger is considered that of the initial one Cell station transmitted Pilot signal, takes over the mobile unit the stronger Pilot signal and the corresponding device channel of the new cell station.
Wenn ein Anruf bzw. ein Gespräch eingeleitet wird, wird eine Pseudonoise- bzw. PN-Codeadresse bestimmt zur Verwendung während dieses Gespräches bzw. dieser Verbindung. Die Codeadresse kann entweder der Zellenstation zugeordnet sein oder kann basierend auf der Identität der Mobileinheit vorbestimmt sein. Nachdem ein Anruf eingeleitet ist, fährt die Mobileinheit fort, das von den in benachbarten Zellen angeordneten Zellenstationen übertragene Pilotsignal abzutasten. Das Abtasten des Pilotsignals wird fortgesetzt um zu bestimmen, ob eines der von den benachbarten Zellenstationen übertragenen Pilotsignale stärker wird, als das von der Zellenstation übertragene Pilotsignal, mit der die Mobileinheit in Verbindung steht bzw. kommuniziert. Wenn das Pilotsignal, das von einer Zellenstation übertragen wird, welche in einer benachbarten Zelle angeordnet ist, stärker wird als das Pilotsignal, das von einer Zellenstation in der derzeitigen Zelle übertragen wird, ist dies eine Anzeige für die Mobileinheit, daß in eine neue Zelle eingetreten wurde und daß eine Übergabe (handoff) eingeleitet werden sollte. Ansprechend auf diese Pilotsignalstärkebestimmung erzeugt und überträgt die Mobileinheit eine Steuernachricht an die Zellenstation, die die Verbindung bzw. das Gespräch der Zeit bedient. Diese Steuernachricht als Anzeige dafür, daß ein von einer neuen Zellenstation übertragenes Pilotsignal nun stärker ist als das von der derzeitgen Zellenstation übertragene Pilotsignal, wird an die Systemsteuereinheit geliefert. Die Steuernachricht enthält ferner Information, welche die neue Zellenstation und den PN-Code identifiziert. Die an die Systemsteuereinheit gelieferte Steuernachricht wird so interpretiert, daß sie bedeutet, daß eine Übergabe der Verbindung der Mobileinheit zu der identifizierten neuen Zellenstation bevorsteht.If a call or a conversation is initiated, a pseudonoise or PN code address is determined for use during this conversation or this connection. The code address can either be the cell station be assigned or may be predetermined based on the identity of the mobile unit be. After a call is initiated, the mobile unit continues to that transmitted by cell stations located in adjacent cells To scan the pilot signal. The sampling of the pilot signal is continued to determine whether one of the pilot signals transmitted by the neighboring cell sites stronger is, as the transmitted from the cell station pilot signal with the mobile unit communicates. If the pilot signal transmitted by a cell station, which is in a adjacent cell, becomes stronger than the pilot signal, transmitted by a cell station in the current cell is this is an ad for the mobile unit that in a new cell has been entered and that a handoff has been initiated should be. In response to this pilot signal strength determination creates and transmits the mobile unit a control message to the cell-site indicating the connection or the conversation served the time. This control message as an indication that one of a new cell station transmitted Pilot signal now stronger is as the transmitted from the current cell station pilot signal is delivered to the system controller. The control message also contains Information identifying the new cell station and the PN code. The control message delivered to the system controller becomes so interpreted that she means a handover the connection of the mobile unit to the identified new cell station imminent.
Die Systemsteuereinheit beginnt nun mit dem Übergabevorgang. Es sei bemerkt, daß während der Übergabe die PN-Codeadresse der bestimmten Mobileinheit, die sich dem Übergabevorgang unterzieht, sich nicht zu ändern braucht. Die Systemsteuereinheit beginnt die Übergabe, indem ein in der neuen Zellenstation angeordnetes Modem der Verbindung bzw. dem Anruf zugeordnet wird. Diesem Modem wird die PN-Adrese gegeben, die mit dem Anruf bei der Kommunikation zwischen der Mobileinheit und dem derzeitigen Zellenstationsmodem assoziiert ist. Das neue Zellenstationsmodem, das den Anruf übernehmen soll, sucht nach dem von der Mobileinheit übertragenen Signal und findet dieses. Das Zellenstationsmodem beginnt auch, ein ausgehendes Signal an die Mobileinheit zu senden. Die Mobileinheit sucht nach diesem ausgehenden Signal gemäß der Signal- und Einrichtungskanalinformation, die von der neuen Zellenstation geliefert wird. Wenn das von dem neuen Zellenstationmodem gesendete Signal gefunden wurde, schaltet die Mobileinheit um, um auf dieses Signal zu hören. Die Mobileinheit sendet dann eine Steuernachricht, die anzeigt, daß die Übergabe beendet ist. Die Steuernachricht wird von einem oder beiden der alten und neuen Zellenstationsmodems an die Systemsteuereinheit geliefert. Ansprechend auf diese Steuernachricht schaltet die Systemsteuereinheit den Anruf bzw. die Verbindung um auf das neue Zellenstationsmodem allein, während der Anruf bzw. die Verbindung über das alte Zellenstationsmodem beendet bzw. abgebrochen wird. Das alte Zellenstationsmodem tritt dann in einen Pool von untätigen bzw. freien Modems ein, die für eine erneute Zuweisung verfügbar sind.The system controller now begins the transfer process. It should be noted that during the handover, the PN code address of the particular mobile unit undergoing handover does not need to change. The system controller begins the handover by assigning a modem located in the new cell-site to the call. This modem is given the PN address associated with the call in the communication between the mobile unit and the current cell-site modem. The new cell-site modem that should pick up the call searches for and finds the signal transmitted by the mobile unit. The cell-site modem also begins to send an outgoing signal to the mobile unit. The mobile unit searches for this outgoing signal in accordance with the signaling and setup channel information provided by the new cell station. When the signal transmitted by the new cell-site modem is found, the mobile unit switches to listen for that signal. The mobile unit then sends a control message indicating that the handover is completed. The control message is delivered to the system controller by one or both of the old and new cell-station modems. In response to this control message, the system controller switches the call or connection to the new cell-site modem alone while the call or connection is being terminated or aborted via the old cell-site modem. The old cell-site modem then enters a pool of idle modems available for reassignment.
Wenn jedoch die Mobileinheit innerhalb eines einzigen Zellenbedienungsbereichs ist, in dem die Zellenstations-signale Mehrpfad- bzw. Multipfadsignale sind, sind die entsprechenden, von der Zellenstation übertragenen Signale stärker als diejenigen Signale, die von irgendeiner anderen Zellenstation übertragen wurden und von der Mobileinheit empfangen wurden. In dieser Einzelzellenbetriebsart überwacht der Suchempfänger die Mehrpfadsignale und identifiziert das stärkste, auf den verschiedenen Multipfaden empfangene Signal. Der Suchempfänger liefert diese Information an den Mobileinheitssteuerprozessor, welcher die Datenempfänger instruiert, die Signale auf diesen stärksten Pfaden zu suchen. Die Signale werden dann von den Datenempfängern ausgegeben und an einen Diversity-Combiner geliefert.If however, the mobile unit within a single cell service area in which the cell station signals are multipath or multipath signals are the corresponding ones transmitted by the cell-site Signals stronger as those signals transmitted by any other cell station and were received by the mobile unit. Monitored in this single cell mode the search receiver the multipath signals and identifies the strongest, on the different multipath thread received signal. The search receiver provides this information to the mobile unit control processor, which the data receiver instructed to seek the signals on these strongest paths. The Signals are then output from the data receivers and sent to one Diversity combiner delivered.
Während der Anrufübergabe sind die Verbindungen der Mobileinheit mit den verschiedenen Zellenstationen Pfad-Diversity ausgesetzt. Diese Verbindungen werden auch von den mehrfachen Empfängern in der Mobileinheit verarbeitet zur Diversity-Kombination. Ferner werden die von den verschiedenen Zellenstationen gesendeten Signale in einem Diversity-Combiner in der Systemsteuereinheit kombiniert. Die vorliegende Erfindung gestattet ferner, was hierin als Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus bezeichnet wird, und zwar zu anderen Zeiten als bei einer Übergabe. In diesem Modus wird gestattet, daß die Mobileinheit mit verschiedenen Zellenstationen dauerhaft in Verbindung steht.During the Call Transfer are the mobile unit's connections to the different cell sites Exposed to path diversity. These compounds are also used by the multiple receivers processed in the mobile unit for diversity combination. Further become the signals sent by the different cell stations combined in a diversity combiner in the system controller. The present invention further allows what is referred to herein as cell station diversity mode is designated at other times than at a handover. In this mode, the mobile unit is allowed to come up with different ones Cell stations permanently connected.
In dem Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus wird gestattet, daß der Anruf bzw. die Verbindung in einem Zwischenzustand verbleibt, wie er oben mit Bezug auf die Verarbeitung des Anrufs in zwei Zellenstationen beschrieben wurde. In dem Ausführungsbeispiel, das hierin mit Bezug auf das Mobiltelefon der vorliegenden Erfindung beschrieben wurde, wird eine Gesamtzahl von drei Demodulator-Prozessoren oder -Empfängern verwendet. Einer dieser Empfänger wird für die Abtastfunktion verwendet, während die anderen zwei Empfänger als Zwei-Kanal-Diversity-Empfänger verwendet werden. Während des Betriebs in einer einzigen Zelle versucht der Abtastempfänger, daß von der Zellenstation übertragene Signal zu finden, das auf mehreren Pfaden zu der Mobileinheit gelangt. Diese Multipfad-Signale werden typischerweise durch Reflexionen der Signale durch das Gelände, Gebäude und andere Signalhindernisse verursacht. Wenn zwei oder mehr solcher Reflexionen gefunden werden, werden die zwei Empfänger den zwei stärksten Pfaden zugeordnet. Der Abtastempfänger fährt fort, die mehrfachen Pfade auszuwerten, um die zwei Empfänger mit Signalen auf den zwei stärksten Pfaden synchronisiert zu halten, während sich die Pfadbedingungen ändern.In The cell station diversity mode is allowed to allow the call or the connection remains in an intermediate state, as above with respect to the processing of the call in two cell-sites has been described. In the embodiment, the herein with respect to the mobile phone of the present invention a total of three demodulator processors or receivers is used. One of these recipients will for the Scanning function used while the other two receivers used as a two-channel diversity receiver become. While of operation in a single cell, the sampling receiver attempts that of the Cell station transmitted Find signal that passes to the mobile unit on multiple paths. These multipath signals are typically caused by reflections of the signals through the terrain, buildings and causes other signal obstacles. If two or more such Reflections are found, the two receivers are the two strongest Associated with paths. The scan receiver continues the multiple paths evaluate to the two receivers with signals on the two strongest Keep paths synchronized as path conditions change.
In dem Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus werden die stärksten Pfade von jeder Zellenstation durch den Suchempfänger bestimmt. Die zwei Empfänger werden der Demodulation der Signale auf den zwei stärksten Pfaden zugeordnet, und zwar von den Pfaden, die von der ursprünglichen Zellenstation und der neuen Zellenstation verfügbar sind. Der Datendemodulationsprozeß verwendet Information von beiden dieser Empfänger in einer Diversity-Kombinieroperation. Das Ergebnis dieser Diversity-Kombinieroperation ist ein stark verbesserter Widerstand gegen schädliches Fading, das in der Multipfadumgebung des zellulären Telefons auftreten kann.In Cell Station Diversity mode becomes the strongest paths from each cell station through the search receiver certainly. The two receivers are associated with the demodulation of the signals on the two strongest paths, and though from the paths taken by the original cell station and the new cell station available are. The data demodulation process uses information from both of these recipients in a diversity combining operation. The result of this diversity combining operation is a greatly improved resistance to harmful fading in the Multipath environment of the cellular Telephone can occur.
Die vorliegende Erfindung verwendet Diversity-Kombination, um die Qualität und Zuverlässigkeit von Verbindungen in einem mobilen, zellulären Telefonsystem signifikant zu verbessern. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung wird eine Art von Maximalverhältniskombination verwendet. Der Rauschabstand wird für beide Pfade bestimmt, die kombiniert werden, wobei die Beiträge beider Pfade entsprechend gewichtet werden. Die Kombination ist kohärent, da die Pilotsignaldemodulation gestattet, daß die Phase jedes Pfades bestimmt wird.The The present invention uses diversity combining to improve the quality and reliability of Compounds in a mobile, cellular telephone system significantly to improve. In the present invention, one kind of Maximum ratio combining used. The signal to noise ratio is determined for both paths, the be combined, with the contributions of both paths accordingly be weighted. The combination is coherent, as the pilot signal demodulation allows the Phase of each path.
In dem Pfad von der Mobileinheit zu den zwei Zellenstationen wird ein Pfad-Diversity-Empfang auch dadurch erhalten, daß beide Zellenstationen die von der Mobileinheit übertragenen Signale demodulieren. Beide Zellenstationen geben ihre demodulierten Datensignale an die Systemsteuereinheit weiter, und zwar zusammen mit einer Anzeige der Signalqualität bei den Zellenstationsempfängern. Die Systemsteuereinheit kombiniert dann die zwei Versionen des Mobileinheitssignals und wählt das Signal mit den besten Qualitätsanzeichen aus. Es sei bemerkt, daß es möglich ist, die nicht-decodierten oder sogar die nicht-demodulierten Signale an die Systemsteuereinheit zu übertragen, um zu gestatten, daß ein besserer Diversity-Kombinierprozeß verwendet wird.In the path from the mobile unit to the two cell stations becomes Path Diversity Reception too obtained by both Cell stations demodulate the signals transmitted by the mobile unit. Both cell stations give their demodulated data signals to the System controller on, together with a display the signal quality at the cell-site receivers. The system controller then combines the two versions of the mobile unit signal and choose the signal with the best quality marks out. It should be noted that it possible is the non-decoded or even the non-demodulated signals to the system controller transferred to, to allow a better one Diversity combining process used becomes.
Die Systemsteuereinheit spricht darauf an, indem der Anruf mit einem Modem in der neuen Zellenstation verbunden wird. Die Systemsteuereinheit führt dann eine Diversity-Kombination der Signale durch, die von den zwei Zellenstationen empfangen werden, während die Mobileinheit eine Diversity-Kombination der Signale durchführt, die von den zwei Zellenstationen empfangen wurden. Der Zellen- bzw. Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus dauert an, solange Signale, die von beiden Zellenstationen empfangen wurden, auf einem Niveau sind, das ausreichend ist, um eine Demodulation guter Qualität zu gestatten.The System controller responds by placing the call with a Modem is connected in the new cell site. The system controller then performs a diversity combination of the signals transmitted by the two cell stations to be received while the mobile unit performs a diversity combination of the signals that received from the two cell stations. The cell or cell station diversity mode continues as long as signals are received from both cell sites were at a level sufficient to demodulate good quality to allow.
Die Mobileinheit fährt fort, nach Signalen zu suchen, die von anderen Zellenstationen gesendet werden. Wenn ein von einer dritten Zellenstation gesendetes Signal stärker wird als eines der ursprünglichen zwei Zellenstationssignale, wird eine Steuernachricht von der Mobileinheit über mindestens eine derzeitige Zellenstation zu der Systemsteuereinheit gesendet. Die Steuernachricht zeigt die Identität dieser Zellenstation an sowie einen Antrag auf Übergabe. Die Systemsteuerenheit trennt dann die Verbindung, die über das schwächste der drei Zellenstationssignale besteht, während die Verbindung bzw. der Anruf über die zwei stärksten Zellenstationen vorgesehen wird. Sollten die Mobileinheiten mit zusätzlichen Empfängern ausgerüstet sein, wie beispielsweise drei Empfängern, kann ein Dreifach-Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus implementiert werden.The Mobile unit is running continues to search for signals sent from other cell sites. When a signal sent from a third cell station becomes stronger as one of the original two cell-site signals, a control message is sent from the mobile unit via at least a current cell station is sent to the system controller. The control message indicates the identity of this cell site as well an application for surrender. The system controller then disconnects the connection via the weakest the three cell station signals exists while the connection or the Call over the two strongest Cell stations is provided. Should the mobile units with additional recipients equipped may be a triple cell station diversity mode, such as three receivers be implemented.
Der Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus wird beendet, wenn die Mobileinheit bestimmt, daß nur eine Zellenstation geeignete Signale für qualitativ gute Demodulation liefert. Die Mobileinheit sendet dann eine Steuernachricht, die die Zellenstation bezeichnet, mit der die Verbindung nach Beendigung des Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus aufrechterhalten bleiben soll. Der Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus kann auch von der Systemsteuereinheit beendet werden, wenn das System überlastet wird, weil eine nicht-ausreichende Anzahl von Modems verfügbar ist, um alle Anträge von Mobileinheiten auf diese Betriebsart bzw. diesen Modus zu unterstützen. Der beschriebene Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus wird implementiert durch Entscheidungen, die in der Mobileinheit getroffen werden, um im Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus zu arbeiten. Es sei jedoch bemerkt, daß der Zellenstations-Diversity-Modus so implementiert werden kann, daß die Entscheidungen für den Betrieb in diesem Modus in der Systemsteuereinheit getroffen werden. Es sei auch bemerkt, daß der Zellenstationsempfänger die oben beschriebene Mehrfach-Empfänger-Architektur verwenden kann, um Diversity-Empfang vorzusehen, wenn Signale an der Zellenstation von einer Mobileinheit ankommen, nachdem sie sich mit einer größeren Verzögerungsdifferenz als ein PN-Chip fortbewegen.Of the Cell Station Diversity Mode is terminated when the mobile unit that determines only a cell station suitable signals for good quality demodulation supplies. The mobile unit then sends a control message that the cell station designates the connection after termination the cell station diversity mode should be maintained. The cell station diversity mode can also be used by the system controller will be stopped when the system overloads because there is an insufficient number of modems available, for all applications from mobile units to this mode or mode. Of the described cell station diversity mode is implemented by Decisions made in the mobile unit to be made in the mobile unit Cell Station Diversity mode to work. It should be noted, however, that cell station diversity mode can be implemented so that the decisions for the operation in this mode in the system control unit. It be noted also that the Cell station receiver use the multiple receiver architecture described above may provide for diversity reception when signals at the cell site arriving from a mobile unit after coming up with a larger delay difference as a PN chip.
Die vorliegende Erfindung sieht eine wesentliche Verbesserung gegenüber herkömmlichen zellulären Telefonsystemen vor hinsichtlich des Widerstands bzw. der Beständigkeit gegenüber Signalschwund oder -fading, und zwar durch kohärentes Kombinieren von Mehrpfadsignalen.The The present invention provides a substantial improvement over conventional ones cellular Telephone systems in terms of resistance or resistance across from Signal fading or fading by coherently combining multipath signals.

in der Empfangszeit der Signale vorhanden sein. Diese Empfangszeitdifferenz
entspricht der Entfernungsdifferenz geteilt durch die Lichtgeschwindigkeit.
Wenn diese Zeitdifferenz eine Mikrosekunde überschreitet, dann wird der
Korrelationsprozeß einen

Bei der ankommenden Verbindung oder der Verbindung von Mobileinheit zur Zellenstation überträgt die Mobileinheit kein Pilotsignal, das bei der Signalverarbeitung in der Zellenstation zu Zwecken der kohärenten Referenz verwendet werden kann. Somit verwendet die Verbindung von der Mobileinheit zu der Zellenstation ein Schema nicht-kohärenter Modulation und Demodulation unter Verwendung von 64er-Orthogonalsignalisierung.at the incoming connection or mobile unit connection to the cell station, the mobile unit transmits no pilot signal used in signal processing in the cell station for the purposes of coherent Reference can be used. Thus, the compound of the mobile unit to the cell station a scheme of non-coherent modulation and demodulation using 64-bit orthogonal signaling.

Der Viterbi-Decoder wird dazu verwendet, die wahr scheinlichste Informationsbitsequenz zu bestimmen. Für jeden Vocoder-Datenblock, nominal 15 Millisekunden von Daten, wird eine Signalqualitätsschätzung erhalten und als Mobileinheitsleistungseinstellungsbefehl zusammen mit den Daten zu der Mobileinheit übertragen. Weitere Information über die Erzeugung dieser Qualitätsschätzung ist in Einzelheiten in der oben genannten anhängigen Anmeldung beschrieben. Diese Qualitätsschätzung ist der durchschnittliche Rauschabstand über das 15 Millisekunden-Intervall hinweg.Of the Viterbi decoder preferably has a restriction length of 9 and a code rate of 1/2. The Viterbi decoder is used to determine the most likely information bit sequence. For each Vocoder data block, nominal 15 milliseconds of data, a signal quality estimate is obtained and as a mobile unit power setting command along with the Transfer data to the mobile unit. Further information about the generation of this quality estimate is in details in the above-referenced application. This quality estimate is the average signal to noise ratio over the 15 millisecond interval time.

Wenn der Zellen-Diversity-Modus aktiv ist, wird der Anruf von zwei Zellenstationen bearbeitet, so daß Signale mit nominal der gleichen Information von mehr als einer Zellenstation an der MTSO ankommen. Auf Grund von Fading und Interferenz auf der ankommenden Verbindung von der Mobileinheit zu den Zellenstationen kann jedoch das Signal an einer Zellenstation eine bessere Qualität besitzen als das Signal an einer anderen Zellenstation.If the cell diversity mode is active, the call is from two cell sites edited so that signals with nominally the same information from more than one cell station arrive at the MTSO.

Wenn der Zellen-Diversity-Modus verwendet wird, verwendet die Mobileinheit den Sucherempfänger, um das stärkste Multipfadsignal von jeder der zwei Zellenstationen zu suchen und einzufangen. Die Digitaldateneempfänger werden von dem Sucherempfänger und dem Steuerprozessor gesteuert, so daß sie die stärksten Signale demodulieren. Wenn die Anzahl von Empfängern geringer ist als die Anzahl von Zellenstationen, welche Information parallel übertragen, ist eine Schalt-Diversity-Fähigkeit möglich. Wenn beispielsweise nur ein einziger Datenempfänger vorhanden ist und zwei Zellenstationen senden, überwacht der Sucherempfänger die Pilotsignale von beiden Zellenstationen und wählt das stärkste Signal für den Empfänger zur Demodulation aus. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel kann die Wahl mit einer Häufigkeit bis zu jedem Vocoderrahmen oder ungefähr jede 15 Millisekunden getroffen werden.If the cell diversity mode is used, the mobile unit is using the viewfinder receiver, the strongest Multipath signal from each of the two cell stations to search and capture. The digital data receivers are from the viewfinder receiver and controlled by the control processor so that they have the strongest signals demodulate. If the number of recipients is less than that Number of cell-sites transmitting information in parallel, is a switching diversity capability possible. For example, if there is only one data recipient and two Send cell stations, monitored the viewfinder receiver the pilot signals from both cell stations and selects the strongest signal for the receiver for demodulation. In this embodiment, the choice with a frequency up to every vocoder frame, or about every 15 milliseconds become.
